Lethal and sublethal effects of oil, chemical dispersant, and dispersed oil on the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi

Aquatic Biology, 2015
We established the lethal levels for water-accommodated fractions of Corexit® 9500A chemical dispersant, crude oil (WAF), and dispersed crude oil (CEWAF) for the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi at both 15 and 23°C.

Dispersant for Reducing Mud Cakes of Slurry Shield Tunnel Boring Machine in Sticky Ground

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
When a slurry shield tunnel boring machine (TBM) encounters sticky ground during tunneling, mud cakes often occur on the cutter head due to the high stickiness of soil. The mud cakes caused several negative issues, such as high torque demand, advancement

Conductive Additives for Next‐Generation Batteries: Emphasizing the Potential of Bio‐Derived 3D Carbon Architectures at Electrode–Electrolyte Interfaces

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D conductive frameworks can maintain continuous electron transport, mechanical stability, and interfacial integrity, helping next‐generation batteries operate more efficiently. This Review examines their relevance to Si anodes, all‐solid‐state batteries, and dry‐processed electrodes, and highlights bio‐derived carbons as sustainable, structurally ...

Determination of dispersion predictability on oil spill dispersant using the warren spring laboratory LR 448 test and swirling flask test [PDF]

, 2019
One of a method used to clean the oil spill is using oil spill dispersant. Availability of dispersant on sea surface reduces the tension and lead to separation of oil and seawater.

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...

Impact of Crude Oil and Dispersant Use on the Baltic Sea Blue Mussel Mytilus trossulus Microbiome

Applied Microbiology
The Baltic Sea blue mussel (Mytilus trossulus) plays a crucial role in this brackish water ecosystem, filtering water and accumulating pollutants. This study investigated how exposure to crude oil and dispersants affects the microbiome of M. trossulus at
